Manufactured from gravity-cast aluminum alloy with an 18% silicon content, this piston offers a balance of strength, durability, and consistent performance for engine rebuilding and top-end service applications. Its 71.95 mm piston size is engineered to support proper fitment when matched to the appropriate engine specifications.\u003cbr\u003eThe piston receives a T-5 heat-treating, hardening, and tempering cycle to help improve durability under demanding operating conditions. Its skirt is finished with a high-tech molybdenum disulfide coating that promotes faster break-in and helps reduce friction during initial operation. This coating contributes to extended piston life while supporting smooth movement within the cylinder.\u003cbr\u003eThe complete Vertex VTK23375B-2 top-end kit includes the piston, piston rings, wrist pin, circlips, top-end gaskets, and wrist pin bearing. Including these essential components in one package simplifies installation and helps ensure that related wear items are renewed together during service.
